Build credit history and savings for down payment and closing costs.

So, the off-season is where to build the building blocks for when you retire.

These homes are being built knowing that they will be running down the highways over bumps / rough roads at 60-70 mph, they build them to handle that, they are built using on average 20% more lumber than a site built home... just saying.

Use the equity in our current home to build a kitchen in the basement and convert said home to a duplex.

we are competing with large new apartment buildings that offer a lot of amenities.

I did use credit cards to help build my portfolio.

Could you hold a 2, 3 or 4-plex in an LLC, live in one and still sell the entire building as a personal property sale after 24 months (no cap gains tax)?

However, it could also be a pro as the plan would be to buy more buildings like this together in the future.Plan b: Purchase another multi on my own.

@Sophia Boro, I think in many (probably smaller) municipalities that there are not good records with building permits, building inspections, etc.
